Diwaniya in Kuwait

Diwaniya or Dewanya in Kuwait is a cherished cultural institution that holds deep significance. Originating from the word “Diwan,” which refers to a council or assembly, the Diwaniya has evolved into a unique space where Kuwaitis gather to discuss matters of importance, socialize, and connect together.

 

While a single courtyard is customary in Kuwaiti homes, wealthy families sometimes break the mold. They usually create a special “Dewanya” room beside the main house. They consider it a symbol of hospitality and generosity. Unlike any other local gathering, an invitation is not necessary for guests to visit the dewanya.

 

Diwaniya’s cultural importance

The dewanya also plays a vital role in preserving Kuwaiti traditions and customs. It keeps traditions alive: stories, poetry, values. Kuwaitis pass them down from one generation to the next. Step into a dewanya, and you’re stepping into Kuwait’s beating heart.

 

Modern and traditional Diwaniya

The dewanya has adapted to modern lifestyles while keeping its core character. Traditional Dewanya seating usually has low majlis sofas arranged in U or L shapes, with floor cushions for informal gatherings.

 

In addition to majlis sofas, modern Dewanyas may have individual seating options like armchairs or modern sofas. Some of them even have a separate dining area with tables and chairs, making the space more versatile.

 

In the past, technology was limited, and people focused on face-to-face interaction. But in modern Dewanya in Kuwait, you can find speakers placed discreetly, or smart lighting systems. These additions provide convenience and enhance the overall experience.
